79. Stacked Glass Stacked Glass consists of many layers of precisely hand (or laser) cut glass that is stacked and deep-carved to form a three dimensional sculpture. It can be either a free standing sculpture, mounted to walls, floors, stands or banisters. Glass has a green cast to it…but we can use optically clear glass in our stacked glass that does away with the green tint. There is an example of optically clear stacked glass in the following pages. All of our designs are hand carved and hand placed by skilled artisans. Deep carved glass and stacked glass can also be bent. This adds another level of possibilities for this technique of glass.

86. Carved, cast, painted and bent glass Hilton Head Design makes all glass to order according to the customers need. Deep carved glass is a specialty designer glass made through finely detailed sandblasting (we use 120 grit silicone carbide) on prefabricated flat glass. The artist carves one side into three dimensions, leaving the opposite side smooth. You can choose to have the artistic carving forward or backward facing. Cast Glass is an art glass type made by heating glass to a high temperature, and as the glass melts it conforms to a mould. Both sides of cast glass carry the design whereas Deep Carved Glass normally has carving on one side only. Bent glass is exactly that—bent to a radius specified by the client. entire piece to provide opaque or translucent effects. Art glass then can be intricately painted with airbrushed enamel. All designs may be back finished in any selective areas or across an entire piece to provide opaque or translucent effects. Painting can be done on carved glass or cast glass with a pattern cast into the glass. Due to our truly custom nature…any image or color can be attained. We work from 3/20" (4 mm) to 2" thick (50 mm).

98. CUSTOM METALWORK In-House Metal Capabilities: All custom pieces start its life as a raw metal casting. This casting receives special attention from our artisans to remove the slag and mold parting lines inherent to foundry castings. At this point, the metal can be finished in a variety of ways. Our favorite option for aluminum is the special custom process that results in the natural, soft finish we call Natural River Rock (pewter grey, subtly speckled, organic, uncommonly beautiful). Bronze castings can be left raw and exposed to develop a deep patina over time. Bronze or aluminum can be given an artist patina, a unique piece of art applied by hand and torch. Raw or patinated, aluminum or bronze, castings can be sealed in a tough powdercoat finish, either clear or in any of an infinite variety of colors.We will be able to metal castings to enhance our glass projects. Bronze, brass, aluminum and steel…Raw, powder-coated or with a variety of artist patinas. We will also add the fabrications of sheet metals; extrusions and castings …this adds another layer to what Hilton Head Design has to offer its clients.We have just added a retinue of fabulous metal artists that are well known for their restoration and reproduction abilities. With them comes a complete foundry and metal capabilities that add a completely new layer to the Hilton Head Design Consortium.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS "We hired Cynthia and Hilton Head Design to design, build and install two large chandeliers in our home; one above our dining room table and one above our custom floating stairwell.

When we have guests over the house, the beautiful art is always one of the first things noticed and admired by our guests. Really enjoyed working with Cynthia and continue to be completely satisfied and proud to display the art she created for us."Steve AltmanPresident, QualcommSan Diego, California “Cyndi and her team at Hilton Head Design provided custom designed decorative columns for the hotel lobby at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas Resort.
